The Borough
Kei is lost and alone, his life in chaos. The brief recollection of a girl he once loved leads him to reflect on his old life, on the people he once knew so well, the moments and friends that have since become lost to the years, and the place he once called home... 'The Borough' is the uncompromising debut novel from British born writer Horikei. Based on real events, the book charts the lives of an eclectic group of teenagers and the trials and tribulations they face growing up in a working class town throughout the eighties and nineties. It is a story of love and loss, of struggle and redemption, of friendship and conflict. Like all good tales at it's heart it is a love story, a love story for a generation, a love story for the past and for days that perhaps never even existed. It is dark, brutal, unforgiving and at times beautiful. It is the story of a time before smart phones and Starbucks, back when girls had perms and boys had long hair. It was a time of mix tapes, alcopops and Gordon the Gofer, when lager was cheap and televisions were expensive. This story could be about anyone, about any town or any group of young people in Britain, but it's not. This is our story
The Manor and the Borough
Originally published in 1963, this book examines the English Local Government, and more specifically, the Manor and the Parish, considering the various exemptions, immunities and franchises which enabled the inhabitants of particular localities to exclude the authority of the county at large, or that of one or other of its officers, and thereby enjoy, within their own favoured areas, some peculiar forms of self-government. The book includes chapters on the city and borough of Westminster, the boroughs of Wales, administration by municipal democracies and the municipal revolution.
Of This Our Country: Acclaimed Nigerian writers on the home, identity and culture they know
To define Nigeria is to tell a half-truth. Many have tried, but most have concluded that it is impossible to capture the true scope and significance of Africa’s most populous nation through words or images.
The Borough
Glasgow, city of culture, city of high passion. Into the Borough - this tight-packed maze of streets and interconnected lives - wanders an observer, an angel with broken wings, here to bear witness to the strange tale of the sad man, the hard man, the bigot and the young woman. Love and pride, bigotry and compassion are the threads which link them in this beautiful tale of a city. The Borough is a Glasgow novel which is as memorable as it is different from the realism of James Kelman.

History of the Borough of Lewisham
Avoid cheap photocopies that are difficult to read and have poor image quality! FamLoc is the only publisher to properly republish local history books. "History of the Borough of Lewisham," first published in 1908, covers the geographic area of what was then the Metropolitan Borough of Lewisham, formed in 1900, and includes Lewisham, Lee, Catford, Hither Green, Forest Hill, Bellingham, Rushey Green, Southend, Honor Oak, part of Blackheath, part of Brockley, and part of Sydenham. It is a history of those places, and not a history of the borough. The book covers the history from ancient times up to 1908. It is rich in the origins of street names and places, and includes much information on chu...
